I love spring. Watching the world come alive after months of dreary cold energizes my spirit. Trees in bloom, growing grass and warmer temperatures are the perfect things to cure the winter blues.

I have been scouting out places for my "mommy photo shoots", and came across a beautiful area last week. I knew it would be perfect to get some shots right before sundown. I am pleased with how nicely they turned out. Of course, there are still some things I'm still working on.

You can tell they were more than finished at the end. :)

(And many thanks to Amber Fife from Fife Photography. I've been taking photography lessons from her for a few weeks, and the classes have truly helped me understand my camera. If you're interested in classes, local or online, check out her website.)

My friend, George (gnicholson3 on IG), is one of the authors of IG Style Guide. This morning he posted a hilarious video from YouTube. Having been an IG fan for over a year now, I can relate to so many of those situations. Even if you don't have Instagram, I think you may still find it worth a couple minutes to watch.
